Luzern with Bird

i arrived in Luzern by train from Budapest where i had spent 4 days hanging out seeing the sights and staying at one of the best hostels i have been. When i got here i was welcomed with open arms by a friend i have known since the 4th grade. Erin Bird now Erin Johansson is living the high life in the alps. Luzern is a really great old city south of Zurich. Erin has found the love of her life here and her apartment, her friends and out look are fantastic. She seems to really fit in here, be at home here, comfortable. she hasn't lost all her Americanness, she made some dank burgers let me tell ya.
 Its great to see her doing so well really, she married a great dude named Christopher, it was nice to get to know the guy who is her better half. they seem really happy together. she works, teaching little kids during the day, works in her art studio and for a play company (i saw her play and she killed it) off hours. I am really happy for her. She living in a city surround by history in the shadows of some of the largest mountains in the would. I have been here a week, they let me crash their couch and i have to say its been the best couch sleep i have gotten in a long time. I have seen most of Lurzern wandering looking for a place to sit and whittle. Erin threw a BBQ and we partied till 10:00! that's when you need to keep the noise down in Switzerland, kind of sissyish, so we headed for the bar. I have had some really great Swiss cheese and chocolate. along with a few hot dogs wrapped in croissants. bomb.
 We saw all kinds of stuff while here including the zoo. Deer and goats roam the zoo, its pretty neat.
The worlds largest bite. Erin, was, starving.
This whole part of my trip is brought to me by Aunt Lesa and Mem for donating there hard earn cash to help see me through the second half of my trip. Thanks to Aunt Cathy for working the western union (again) and of course Erin, Christopher and Shashank for all the hospitality. Love you guys. miss everyone else. I am now in the Netherlands, more on this wild ride later.
